Finger Food for a child's birthday party

28 replies

Next week I'm having a small get together at home to celebrate my son's birthday. Its around lunch time so I want to offer a finger food buffet but Im struggling for ideas. I dont want to use the oven because I am sure there will be kids in and out of the kitchen and dont want to risk any accidents and we also dont eat pork so things like scoth eggs and sausage rolls are out.

I was thinking sandwiches- cheese/tuna/turkey
Olives
Hummus and guacamole with breadsticks
Crisps
Quiche
Strawberries and melon pieces

It doesnt seem like a lot but I am struggling for ideas. Im also not sure how many I am catering for. I assume no one will be leaving their kid alone with me so ca 12 if its one adult and one child per family but there are some who may come as a family of 4 or 1 parent with 2 children. So ideeally looking for things that can be kept so I can put out what is needed for who turns up but then reseal the pack and keep for another day if we dont need a full pack.

Mini potatoes baked in their jackets. Children get quite excited about them.

Misread as 'Finger found at child's birthday party' and felt true horror.
Watch this space...the party is on Saturday. If we find any rouge fingers I will update

How about make some puff pastry pinwheels? Veggie sausage rolls (Linda mc ones are good and the frozen coopland vegan), breasticks and dip go down well with kids. Or stuff like babybels, chocolate fingers
